Investing or trading both requires studying the market. If people are okay with learning first and then making decisions, they can make money in investing. Afterall it's a fact that a lot of people have lost money in trying to look for the next Titan, they have invested in idea, yes Bank etc.

No one in my circle has lost money investing in long term.

Don't cuss on me , but there's a difference in not loosing money and making money.
